Italian Mud = Gumboots

As I plan to have a beautiful flower garden, tree lined drive way, vegetable garden, fish ponds, fountains, green lawn ....well you get the idea.

I decided I needed to purchase some gumboots. As the Australian winter is ending at the moment and all the discount sales are advertised every where, I could not pass up the opportunity to take these tattoo style gumboots home with me.
And yes, they do have roses and skulls on them. I hope that's not an omen for what I may dig up!

I've never owned a pair of gumboots before.
I hope I manage to walk in them as good as this little guy does!
